ocean acidification

And while you're at it, take a gander at this stunner - not exactly art imitating reality, but more like disaster movie imitates reality - flabberghastingallidociousness!

Which explains why this ludicrous propostion, to yank CO2 from the atmosphere, assuming that were possible, which it probably isn't, is just a desperate proposal. It would do nothing to save the chain of life in the oceans, which just so happens to be essential for terrestrial life, such as us, people, not to mention plants.

It's just one of many indications of how desperate the scientists have become, and how insanely oblivious the rest of the world is to how dire an emergency we must confront.
